I am a practical person who loves all things creative, and loves animals (aka--fur folks). I enjoy plants, wildlife, riding bikes, walking my dogs, hanging out with my cats, being outdoors and being rather lowkey. I am a vegetarian. I am a reader. I like stories, especially the stories of everyday living. I have an awesome hubby and am a mom of grown kids who are the best. I like hanging out with them too. I have had interesting jobs so far in life, such as; plant nursery and library clerk, now I am a housewife again, at least for now, tomorow is full of possiblities. One of my favorite quotes "life is a journey, not a destination".
